I have no apologies for defecting to APC to support President Tinubu - Former Atiku's spokesperson

The former spokesperson for the Peoples Democratic Party Campaign Organisation, Daniel Bwala has said that he has no apologies for defecting to the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Speaking in an interview on Channels Television, Bwala noted that he met with President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday, January 10 to assure him of his support to his administration.

He made this known to the State House Correspondents in Abuja after his visit to President Tinubu at the Presidential Villa.

“In the last few days, I have been expressing my surprise and appreciation to the president for the decisions he is taking. So this is not about political party. And you need to know that like I said, I was with him before I left.

I was doggedly committed to him(President Bola Tinubu). I told him today that ‘I am committing to play my part to support your administration’, and I have no apologies to anybody,” Daniel Bwala said.

Bwala who was a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) before defecting to the PDP where he was appointed a spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar campaign in the 2023 election.

It was reported that Bwala left the APC over the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the party in the 2023 elections and became one of the most vociferous critics of Tinubu and his party.

He was seen on various platforms slamming the ruling party and its officials and attacking the policies of their government.

It was only a few days ago that Bwala announced Atiku would contest the presidency again in the 2027.

Sharing his thoughts on Tinubu's leadership so far, Bwala hailed the president for some of the actions he has taken since he assumed office in May.
